A2200 kg truck has put its front bumper against the rear bumper of a 2400 kg suv to give it a push. with the engine at full power and good tires on good pavement, the maximum forward force on the truck is 18,000 n.
a. what is the maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the suv?
b. at this acceleration, what is the force of the suv's bumper on the truck's bumper?

a) The maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV is 7.5 meters per second squared

b) The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 18000 newtons

Explanation:

a) By Newton's second law we can find the relation between force and acceleration of the SUV:

With F the maximum force the truck applies to the SUV, m the mass of the SUV and a the acceleration of the SUV; solving for a:

b) Because at this acceleration the truck's bumper makes a force of 18000 N on the SUV’s bumper by Third Newton’s law the force of the SUV’s bumper on the truck’s bumper is 18000 N too because they are action-reaction force pairs.

hi i’m sorry to call us today so we will get back with y’all and we will have to do it haha omg was the day

the assestment will probley apele with cause and effect
